Claims

What is claimed is:


1. A solid, controlled release pharmaceutical composition comprising a pharmaceutically active ingredient incorporated in a matrix comprising a first substance selected fromthe group consisting of a water soluble polydextrose, a water soluble cyclodextrin and a cellulose ether, and a second substance selected from the group consisting of a C12 -C36 fatty alcohol and a polyalkylene glycol.

2. The composition according to claim 1 wherein the first substance is a cyclodextrin.

3. The composition according to claim 2 wherein the first substance is a beta-cyclodextrin.

4. The composition according to claim 1 wherein the fatty alcohol is a C14 -C22 fatty alcohol.

5. The composition according to claim 1 wherein the fatty alcohol is selected from the group consisting of cetyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, cetostearyl alcohol and myristyl alcohol.

6. The composition according to claim 1 wherein the polyalkylene glycol is polyethylene glycol.

7. The composition according to claim 1 wherein the first substance is a cellulose ether.

8. The composition according to claim 7 wherein the cellulose ether is at least one of a hydroxyalkylcellulose and a carboxyalkylcellulose.

9. The composition according to claim 1 wherein the ratio of the first substance to the second substance is between 6 to 1 and 1 to 6.

10. The composition according to claim 9 wherein the ratio is between 4 to 1 and 1 to 4.

11. The composition according to claim 1 wherein the composition contains between 1% and 80% (w/w) of the first substance.

12. The composition according to claim 11 wherein the composition contains between 1% and 50% (w/w) of the first substance.

13. The composition according to claim 12 wherein the composition contains between 2% and 40% (w/w) of the first substance.

14. The composition according to claim 1 wherein the active ingredient is a water isoluble drug.

15. A preparation in which a pharmaceutically active ingredient can be incorporated for the production of a solid, controlled release, pharmaceutical composition, said preparation comprising a matrix of a first substance selected from the groupconsisting of a water soluble polydextrose, a water soluble cyclodextrin and a cellulose ether, and a second substance selected from the group consisting of a C12 -C36 fatty alcohol and a polyalkylene glycol.

16. The preparation according to claim 15 wherein the first substance is a cyclodextrin.

17. The preparation according to claim 16 wherein the first substance is a beta-cyclodextrin.

18. The preparation according to claim 15 wherein the fatty alcohol is a C14 -C22 fatty alchol.

19. The preparation according to claim 18 wherein the fatty alcohol is selected from the group consisting of cetyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, cetostearyl alcohol and myristyl alcohol.

20. The preparation according to claim 15 wherein the polyalkylene glycol is polyethylene glycol.
